    I have been using this product for two weeks. No problems. I really like the bullet ice. It is larger than the ice at places like Chicfila but crunches the same. When the ice melts, it goes back to the reservoir which is a nice feature.

    Smaller, quieter, faster, with one small flaw

    Overall this is a great machine! We've had a similar one (different brand) for several years and it's been a lifesaver as our refrigerator icemaker is very slow and has a small bin, so we were always running out of ice. I've managed to keep the old one alive by repairing it numerous times but the motor finally started to seize up and $50 to replace it I decided it was time for a whole new unit and chose this one. While Insignia is a 'house' brand, I've found their products to be of high quality and in many cases better than other name-brand products I've bought. So far this one has not disappointed. The good: the icemaker has a smaller footprint than our old one while maintaining the same capacity. It is also quieter and makes ice faster. The unit feels solid and appears to the made quite well. The only major difference is that the lid that covers the ice bin is not as substantial as our old one; this one is a single-layer of clear plastic and the old one was double-wall with a smaller, clear single-layer window. Thus far this doesn't appear to impact performance in any way. We've had the machine for about a week and it has been cranking out ice ever since and works very well. How long it will last and with how much maintenance remains to be seen. These units do require a lot of upkeep and need to be cleaned regularly (and they are not easy to clean either, but the effort is worth it to always have ice on hand.) This one looks like it will be even harder to clean than our old one due to the more compact design. While they took a lot of care in making the unit compact, it makes getting to the interior surfaces for cleaning a bit harder. The one not-so-good thing; the fill line. This may not be apparent to most, but this is actually a thing and it will make sense with an understanding of how these machines work. On our old machine, there was a tolerance between the fill line and the bottom of the ice basket. This is important because when the unit is running and making ice, it fills a troth (or bucket) in the upper part of the machine with water. When the cycle completes, it dumps that water out and it flows back into the reservoir. This bucket holds a good bit of water, so if you add water to the fill line while the machine is running there was enough room to hold that extra water without overflowing into the ice basket, On this new machine, there is NO tolerance at all, so if you notice the water is low and add more while it's running it will overflow into the ice basket when each cycle completes and the water is dumped. This has been the one most annoying thing about this machine and it will take me some time to figure out where the 'real' fill line should be. Otherwise, I have to turn the machine off completely, fill it to the line, then turn back on; that is the only way to ensure it doesn't overflow. I wish they had thought of this in the design as that would have made it a full 5-stars for me. Overall, I still like this icemaker and feel that it is superior to many of the other brands selling similar units for more money. I would definitely recommend this one as well.

    It is relentless in making ice. It keeps going as long as there's water in the reservoir. It's fairly quiet but it pulls 1875 watts, which is way more than a large microwave, and it only makes 9 little cubes every 8 minutes. So, plan ahead because it takes awhile to have enough for a drink. This machine is good for making ice to stockpile for later use. However, the cubes are wet on the surface when they're made and will easily stick together in a big lump your freezer. Also, the "large" cubes are small and the "small" cubes are tiny. We use it periodically because our ice consumption will often outpace our fridge's ice maker. It's portable too, so that's a plus.

    This countertop ice maker works flawlessly. You fill it with water, plug it in, and away it goes. Ice is produced very quickly and fills its bin and then stops, as soon as you start using up the ice or it melts its starts on its own to make more ice, till it runs out of water. The ice bin area is not refrigerated so I wasn't sure about that but realized that as the ice melts it just makes more ice so your ice bin area always has ice. It's a great little ice maker that does its thing and makes ice.

    I was at a party and they had one, not sure what brand. Searched the internet to see what brands and deals were out there. Very easy to use, add water, turn on, pick cube size and out comes the ice.

    A very fast ice maker it’s makes ice writhing 6-8 minutes and continues to make until ice basket is full. Only draw back is that it is very noisy. Get extended warranty it’s only 20.00 for 5 years worth it since the life span of these types of ice makers is 3-5 years. I go shooting and use a cooler for water so it’s works great. I highly recommend.
